Sticking to B & C list characters for the remainder of 2013 would be a bad idea. It would give people the impression that 2014 would offer more of that and I think subscriptions would continue to decline drastically. The lineup needs to reflect the most demanded characters going forward because the B & C listers aren't going to keep enough people coming back at the current prices.

I'll be happy to see anyone on that list. I'd kill for it to be Mermista, but I have little hope for that with the tooling cost. With that in mind, I'm hoping for Glimmer. I'm still completely befuddled as to why we haven't got her in this line yet.

I would say it's one of two situations. He said at least one so the implication is two.

so
Madame Razz and broom would count
Horde Trooper pack

Two Bad and one other because it was recently mentioned he wouldn't be oversized meaning they have a plan for the figure already.

One Gum Drop to rule them all, One Gum Drop to find them,
One Gum Drop to bring them all and in the sweetness bind them
In the Land of Candy where the Gingerbreads lie.

I'm going to guess that it will be Scorpia. I only say that bacause Octavia and her appear to beable to share the same buck. All they would really have to do is a new hear and hand sculpt

That's a very good possibility; they know Scorpia is about as demanded as Weaver was.

I also think that Horde Troopers are almost a certainty; Mattel has to know they need to offer up something big this year if there is any hope of 2014 going through. I think they'd be facing a full on fan revolt if the troopers are left hanging for next year.

I am hoping though that the "at least one" comment means that someone like Glimmer or Casta is also on tap. Sadly, I really doubt that Razz is in the running right now. Etheria will seem forever incomplete without her, but she would have to be almost all new tooling, and that seems to be something Mattel is pulling back from with sub sales so low.

"I will use this power for all the good that can be done, to work for peace, to encourage virtue, and above all, to preserve life in all its forms..." Superman

To rub salt in the wound, his bio will be something like this: Tuvar and Baddhra were two rival intergalactic bounty hunters that got stuck back in Preternia. When Evil-Lyn attempted to free them from the Time Warp Continum, her magic powers backfired and the two rivals were magically joined together into the creature known as Two-Bad. Joining Skeletor's evil warriors as a strategist, Two-Bad served helped to eliminate many enemies of freedom. He killed Mermista and Glimmer during the 2nd Ultimate Battleground, pulled off Queen Angella's wings, had Madame Razz committed to an Ethernian nursing home, swept the slime pit with Broom, sent Arrow to the Fright Zone glue factory, and ate Lookie. Two-Bad was finally defeated by Battle Armor Mighty Spector (Coming soon, from Mattel!!).

OUCH

but iīm not sure if Arrow would be mentioned since he is only known by POP fans and maybe some FILMATION hard core fans

But joking aside i hope there are is at least one POP vintage character, a Motu vintage character and i wouldnīt mind being Two-Bad since i like him and maybe another NA character to be presented at NYTF but with Karatti and NA He-Man already confirmed this year, itīs very unlikely.

I can see it going a few ways - but I believe awhile back Scorpia was hinted at so I wouldn't be shocked if it was her (and I'd be happy with that). With Octavia so close though, perhaps not.

While its absolutely correct Scott did not specify PoP, the question he replied to was directed in regards to PoP, so I am guessing either Glimmer or Casta. Leaning towards Casta as she is a personal favorite of Scott, though cripes it sure is heck is past time to have Glimmer in the line!
